Mike Weber was born December 16, 1987 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The second round, 57th choice of the Buffalo Sabers in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft, Weber is a graduate of the OHL's Windsor Spitfires and Barrie Colts.

A defensive defenseman, Weber tripled his offensive output in his third year in the OHL with the Windsor Spitfires. In his final season, Weber was dealt from the Spitfires to the Barrie Colts midway through the season. In 2007-08, Weber would make his professional hockey debut with the Sabres' AHL affiliate in Rochester, and on October 26, 2007 make his NHL debut.

Following two seasons in the American League, Weber would join the Sabres on a full-time basis in 2010. In 58 games for the club, the gritty defender would score four times, while adding 13 assists and 69 penalty minutes.

With the NHL locked out to start the 2012-13 season, Weber would join Lorenskog IK of Norway's premier league. When play resumed at the NHL level he would rejoin the Sabres for the shortened season. Weber would suit up in 42 games for the club, scoring once and adding six assists.

On February 23, 2016, Weber's time in Buffalo would come to an end. He was traded to the Washington Capitals in exchange for a third round draft pick.
